What gets checked
A pool fence inspection looks at the whole barrier between the pool and the rest of the property, not just the fence panels. Exactly what applies depends on your pool’s age and the Australian Standard that applies to it, and Chris explains anything that needs attention in plain terms.
- The fence or barrier itself, whether it’s glass, metal, timber or masonry
- Gates, and whether they close and latch on their own
- Anything near the barrier a child could use to climb it
- Boundary fences and walls that form part of the barrier
- Doors and windows that open into the pool area
- The resuscitation sign
After the inspection
Certificate of non-compliance
Issued when the barrier doesn’t comply yet, with a clear, detailed report and practical advice on what to fix. Then book a re-inspection for $199.

Common questions
Is a pool fence inspection the same as a pool compliance inspection?
Yes. A pool compliance inspection is an inspection of the pool barrier, which is usually the pool fence and its gates. It’s $279, with no hidden admin fees.
What happens if my pool doesn’t pass?
You receive a certificate of non-compliance with a clear, detailed report of what needs attention. Chris gives practical advice until compliance is achieved, and once the work is done you can book a re-inspection for $199.
What is my pool barrier assessed against?
The Swimming Pools Act 1992 (NSW), the Swimming Pools Regulation 2018 and the Australian Standard that applies to your pool, such as AS 1926.1. Which standard applies depends on the pool’s age and any alterations.
Do you inspect spa barriers?
Yes. Chris carries out spa barrier inspections as well as pool barrier inspections, for the same $279. Send a request or call 0421 866 601 to book one.
